Abstract

A washing machine includes a tub, a pump case including an inflow chamber into which wash water in the tub flows, a circulation pump chamber provided at one side of the inflow chamber to supply wash water to the tub, and a drain pump chamber provided at the other side of the inflow chamber to discharge the wash water to the outside, and a pump filter installed in the inflow chamber to filter out foreign substances from the wash water. The pump filter includes a first filter part passing wash water flowing into the circulation pump chamber and a second filter part passing wash water flowing into the drain pump chamber. The pump filter further includes a direction adjustment groove formed to adjust positions of the first filter part and the second filter part within the inflow chamber.
